According to Zou Jianbing, president of the Chile-Zhejiang Business Chamber, around half of the Chinese in Chile are based in Santiago, which is located nearly 2,000 km away from the quake's epicenter.
Chile is one of China's three top trading partners in Latin America, and China is now Chile's largest trading partner and export destination. The two-way trade accounts for one-fifth of Chile's foreign trade and one-eighth of the nation's GDP, said Chinese Ambassador to Chile Yang Wanming.
"All the Chinese nationals based in the capital are in good condition, and their daily accommodations are now being taken care of by the government," Zou told CCTV.
